Cable
First Claim
1. Cable, comprising:
- an inner cable body, in which at least one conductor strand of an optical and/or electrical conductor runs in a longitudinal direction of the cable,a cable sheath, enclosing the inner cable body and lying between an outer surface of the cable and the inner cable body,a sensor located within the outer surface of the cable for sensing at least one state variable of the cable, andat least one information carrier unit disposed within the outer surface of the cable, the at least one information carrier unit being adapted to be read by electromagnetic field coupling, the at least one information carrier unit picking up at least one measured value of the at least one state variable sensed by the sensor,wherein the measured value can be read out from the information carrier by a read device.

Abstract
In order to improve a cable, comprising an inner cable body, in which at least one conductor strand of an optical and/or electrical conductor runs in the longitudinal direction of the cable, a cable sheath, enclosing the inner cable body and lying between an outer surface of the cable and the inner cable body, and at least one information carrier unit, disposed within the outer surface of the cable, in such a way that statements can be made about the cable, it is proposed that the at least one information carrier unit can be read by electromagnetic field coupling, that the at least one information carrier unit picks up at least one measured value of a sensor associated with it and that the measured value can be read out by a read device.
